You guys use YMMV many times .....
Tell you what ... "Blowin' In the Wind", this song first heard by me was from Sam Cooke, from the radio, then years later, by Joan Baez .... then I know it was actually by Bob Dylan .... because at that time, radio plays some other Bob Dylan's songs, or may be I just missed that broadcast....

Not sure if it is available at other streaming platforms, this is from Apple Music.

If you’d like another obsession keep your eyes open and stuff does turn up now and again. I got this one for $80. Not cheap but not $150.

Someone sells a four pieces set in Hong Kong for US$200 ...

Thanks.
It's an RCA, New Orthophonic, SHF-6 from 1957.
All tube with a pp pair of 6V6GT's driving a single 12" woofer with two 3" angled cone tweeters.
It's the baby brother to the big one in my earlier post. Yee-Haw!
I worked with some RCA stereo gear in the early seventies at their factory. People I knew ended up with crates of it after it ceased being in production.

My little brother had a 73 Gremlin that he yanked the motor out of and wedged in a 327 out of a Chevelle. Talk about unstable and uncontrollable, but it was fast for a few hundred yards. He wrapped that thing around a telephone pole and almost didn't survive. Then he bought a Javelin and flipped that into a ditch on a highway, also barely walking away. My brother had bad teenage car karma. :)
God willing he survived and is well. And now driving something that is more road worthy. 👍

Yea he's fine, and as far as roadworthiness, last time I spoke to him he had just purchased a 1989 Corvette convertible and was hot-rodding the engine... so maybe, maybe not. :)

I wish him my best.

I had four. An 86, 89, 96, and the last one was a C5 2001. That was my favorite.
Then I needed a van to deliver gear after I opened my shop.
Now retired but still have the 05 Astro Van.

I have built full size and mid sized racks for Schiit gear but never racks for the smallest pieces. I may have to try that some time. I think I have a Vali and a couple of the Loki Mini’s somewhere that I can use for approximate sizes. A Vali on top with 2-3 pieces below perhaps. Any thoughts?
